What Our Guests Say

“I think it’s a wonderful advocacy that they employ PWD (Deaf people). The staff were warm and hardworking, and they even taught us how to say ‘Thank you’ in sign language. As for the food, the meal portions are huge—we ordered a banana split, and a single serving looks like it can feed two people. More power to this establishment!”

– Angelie Mejia

“Great food! Great service! Each order is suitable for 2-3 persons. The ambiance is okay. I work from home, and unfortunately, their wifi isn’t very strong. However, it’s not a big issue since my mobile internet data is reliable. Their mango shake is simply amazing—the best I’ve ever tried! I’ll go back here every time I come and visit Jagna.”

– Kim Galolo
